At the time of the arrest, deputies discovered approximately 2 grams of suspected marijuana and an expired medical marijuana card, leading to a possession of marijuana charge.

Keesler was lodged in the Chippewa County Jail.

Warrant arrest

Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies also report the Tuesday evening arrest of Jerald R. Holmes Jr., 26, of Kincheloe on an outstanding warrant. Holmes was picked up at a Cedar Grove residence and subsequently booked into the Chippewa County Jail.

Disturbance complaint

Sault Police were called to the 900 block of W. Easterday late Tuesday night on reports of a disturbance at a local gas station.

The suspect admitted he had been in a verbal argument with his girlfriend and she had left him at that location, presumably returning to Canada with the vehicle.

Police arranged for a taxi cab to come to the scene to assist the man in getting back home before closing the books on this matter.

Vehicle towed

Sault Police located a broken-down vehicle parked along Riverside Drive just north of the Three Mile Road intersection shortly after 1 a.m. today.

Officers were unsuccessful in making contact with the vehicle's owner, but Chippewa County Central Dispatch did confirm that mechanical troubles had forced the vehicle to be left at that location.

Noting the potential hazard to other motorists traveling in that area, police had the vehicle towed from the scene.

False alarms

City police also report responding to a pair of false alarms.

The first occurred shortly after 10 p.m. at a retail store on the I-75 Business Spur. A check of the outer perimeter revealed all the doors and windows were secure and officers did a quick search inside the structure once the key holder arrived, determining there was no one inside the structure.

The second false alarm took place shortly after 5 a.m. today at an I-75 Business Spur fueling station. An employee explained there was a mishap with the alarm system upon entry and officers quickly closed the books on this incident.

Fire

Sault Firefighters were called to a trailer park off of W. 18th Tuesday evening after a resident's dinner plans were altered by a small fire.

Reports indicate that a knife was too close to a burner, igniting the wooden handle and producing a substantial quantity of smoke.

Firefighters assisted in ventilating the structure before clearing the scene at 5:39 p.m.
